Referenced Document has non-matching Internal ID
When opening assemblies, users sometimes get a message saying the referenced document has a non-matching internal ID. Let's explore why this occurs and how to remedy the issue.
What's an internal ID?
The internal ID is a number that is automatically generated and assigned to any part you create in SOLIDWORKS. This is not viewable or changable by the user. Once created, the internal ID will remain the same throughout the life of that part.
If you rename the part, the internal ID will remain the same. If you create a copy of the part and give it a different name, both files will have the same internal ID. If two files have non-matching internal IDs, it means they have the same name but different internal IDs. This means they were created independently of each other and are most likely not identical files.
Still confused? Here's an example.
When Part B is created from Part A, both parts will have the same Internal ID. Also, Parts A and B will share the exact same topology. This means swapping A out for B in an assembly typically goes much smoother because the face names (topology) match up. This is also very useful for design automation products such as DriveWorks or TactonWorks.
When Part B is created independently from Part A, they will have different internal IDs. Unless the files are purposefully built identically, they will most likely not share the same topology.
For instance, one may be started on the front plane while the other may be started on the right plane. The resulting solid geometry may be identical, but the part topology is different. Swapping A out for B in this instance will likely require the mates to be reworked in the assembly.
What you can do to fix it:
When you open an assembly and it informs you the internal IDs are different, you must decide whether this is the correct part or not.
Option #1: Is the referenced file in the correct location? Is the path shown in the dialog the expected location for this file? If not, select "Let me browse for the original file" and select the correct file. You may also want to determine why you have multiple versions of the same part number in the vault.
Option #2: If the file is in the correct location, was the file replaced with a more current file? If so, click "Use this file anyway" and the assembly will open with the file. Check the mates for the part to make sure they are correct. In most cases, they will not be unless the files were created identically on purpose.
Option #3: At this stage, depending on how the parts were created, the assembly may blow up. If it does blow up, close the assembly without saving. Reopen the assembly, and when prompted to use the file or not, select the "Open without this document" option. Once the assembly is open, you can delete the suppressed part from the tree and add it back in using the Insert Components dialog.
After opening the assembly with the correct part, you will need to save the assembly to update the file references. Once the assembly is saved with the new part it should recognize the internal ID from then on.


Witch Ladders Knot & Cord Magick
What are Witches Ladders?
A Witches Ladder is a form of Magick that is good for beginners as it doesn't need anything elaborate or any special tools, you just simply use items in your home, garden or out in nature that represents your intent, you then weave your desire or goal into using cords and charms.
You can do this time of Magick at any time, it does not need to be done in a circle or during elaborate rituals. You can however, set the tone however you see fit, with candles and incense etc.
Meditate or concentrate on your intent, visualise yourself already having achieving your goal, this is important because if you visualise yourself wanting your goal it will always be just out of your reach.
To cast a spell using a Witches Ladder, you take three pieces of String, Ribbon, Wool or Strips of cloth ideally colours relevant to your intent.
Focus on your goals and weave (braid) your desire into it, As you braid you can add tokens like feathers, charms, beads & buttons etc. you could have as few as nine, up to the more modern 40.
Once finished you can hang in you home, bury or use it for mediation similar to rosary beads.
Three strands of Cord/Wool/Ribbon (3-9ft) At least nine items relevant to your intent.
How To:
Line up your three strands and tie a knot in the top and make a loop. This binds your intent into your charm here and know that the spell has begun.
Begin weaving and every so often stopping to add a charm and a knot.
As you weave save a charm for the end, add it when you get to the last knot.
Seal the spell by yanking knot tightly with a louder So shall it be done or So mote it be.
Now hang and let it work, if long term goals then tend to it with meditating every so often.
Whilst weaving and concentrating on putting all your intent into the spell there is a very common Witches Ladder Chant which you can find in a lot of books on the subject although its origins are unclear.
By Knot of One
The spell has begun
By Knot of Two
The Magick comes true
By Knot of Three
So it shall be
By Knot of Four
This power is stored
By Knot of Five
My will shall drive
By Knot of Six
This spell I fix
By Knot of Seven
The future I leaven
By Knot of Eight
My will be fate
By Knot of Nine
What is done is mine
You do not have to use this, feel free to make your own personal chant to keep your intent pouring into the weaving, make it repetitive so you can slip into the right state of consciousness without having to think about it.

Suggested Items;
Isis the Egyptian goddess is associated with the magick of knots, it was believed she could control the weather by braiding her hair. Also the Greek Goddess of Circe, who is the goddess of agriculture, again controlling the weather by braiding her hair. Control of the weather is one of the more common uses of knot magick, especially for sailors.
Knot magick is most useful when it comes to harnessing power to be used for a later time. A good example of this would be Full moon magick knotted into a cord and released during a spell when the moon is new etc.
Healing ~ tie 9 knots in a piece of thread, tie that around the afflicted body part. wear for awhile to let the cord absorb what ails you, then remove it, untie all the knots and throw the thread into running water.
Money ~ Green cord, make nine equally spaced knots, keep the cord hanging in your home, modify chant to suit.
Releasing Hate or Anger ~ Focus all your hate or anger then tie a knot in your cord, visualise your anger all tied up in the knot, when you undo the knot, release your anger and throw the cord into fire.
You can also Bind and do Love spells which I won't add here as its not for everyone.
After your needs have been met, you can, Burn it, so that the knot can never be undone. Bury it in the Earth. Keep it in a safe place where it wont be disturbed.
To undo knot magick, just untie the knot. Warning~~ this may not always work.

Dataset Standards
Minari Dataset Directory
Minari stores the offline datasets under a common root directory. The root directory path for the local datasets is set by default to ~/.minari/datasets/. However, this path can be modified by setting the environment variable MINARI_DATASETS_PATH.
The remote datasets are kept in the public Google Cloud Platform (GCP) bucket minari-remote.
Minari dataset directories are named after the datasets id. The datasets id must follow the syntax (namespace/)(env_name/)dataset_name(-v(version)), where:
 - namespace: an optional string that allows grouping of several datasets under a common subdirectory. If no namespace is specified, the dataset is stored in the top level directory and the dataset id takes the form (env_name/)dataset_name(-v(version)), with no leading forward slash. Namespaces can be arbitrarily nested.
 - env_name: an optional string that describes the environment from which the dataset was created. For example, if a dataset comes from the AdroitHandDoor environment env_name can be equal to door. The env_name is a namespace group we encourage to use when the dataset is generated from an environment.
 - dataset_name: a string describing the content of the dataset. For example, if the dataset for the AdroitHandDoor environment was generated from human input we can give the value human to dataset_name.
 - version: integer value that represent the number of versions for door-human-v(version) dataset, starting from 0.
In the end, the id of the dataset for the initial version of the AdroitHandDoor environment example, with no namespace, will be door/human-v0. If the dataset was created with a namespace, for example D4RL, the dataset id would instead be D4RL/door/human-v0.
Minari dataset directories are stored in the root directory (~/.minari/datasets/ by default) or in a subdirectory corresponding to the namespace of the dataset if a namespace is specified.
Each Minari dataset directory contains another directory named data where the data files are stored. We currently support two files format: Arrow and HDF5. You can choose the file format when you create the dataset (see minari.DataCollector and minari.create_dataset_from_buffers()).
Dataset Metadata
Datasets can have metadata attached to them, as well as metadata for each episode. The dataset metadata can be specified by the user during dataset creation. On the other hand, the metadata for each episode can be added by the user by overriding the EpisodeMetadataCallback function in the DataCollector wrapper.
When creating a Minari dataset the default global metadata will be the following:
Attribute
Type
Description
dataset_id
str
Identifier of the Minari dataset.
total_episodes
int
Number of episodes in the Minari dataset.
total_steps
int
Number of steps in the Minari dataset.
action_space
gymnasium.Space
Gymnasium action space describing actions in dataset.
observation_space
gymnasium.Space
Gymnasium observation space describing observations in dataset.
env_spec
str
JSON string of the Gymnasium environment spec.
code_permalink
str
Link to a repository with the code used to generate the dataset.
author
set of str
Name of the authors that created the dataset.
author_email
set of str
Email of the authors that created the dataset.
algorithm_name
str
Name of the expert policy used to create the dataset.
minari_version
str
Version of Minari that generated the dataset.
requirements
list of str
List of requirements in pip-style to load the environment.
where only dataset_id, total_episodes, and total_steps are mandatory (with the latter two computed automatically).
For each episode group the default metadata attributes are:
Metric
Type
Description
rewards_max
float
Maximum reward value in the episode.
rewards_min
float
Minimum reward value in the episode.
rewards_mean
float
Mean value of the episode rewards.
rewards_std
float
Standard deviation of the episode rewards.
rewards_sum
float
Total undiscounted return of the episode.
Namespace metadata
Namespaces can have metadata associated to them, to describe the group of datasets that they contain. Arbitrary JSON-serializable metadata is supported, and is stored in the file namespace_metadata.json in the appropriate namespace directory.
Observation and Action Spaces
The Minari storage format supports the following observation and action spaces:
Supported Spaces
Space
Description
Discrete
Describes a discrete space where {0, 1, ..., n-1} are the possible values our observation can take. An optional argument can be used to shift the values to {a, a+1, ..., a+n-1}.
Box
An n-dimensional continuous space. The upper and lower arguments can be used to define bounded spaces.
Tuple
Represents a tuple of spaces.
Dict
Represents a dictionary of spaces.
Text
The elements of this space are bounded strings from a charset. Note: at the moment, we don't guarantee support for all surrogate pairs.
Spaces are serialized to a JSON format when saving to disk. This serialization supports all space types supported by Minari, and aims to be both human, and machine readable.
EpisodeData Structure
A Minari dataset is encapsulated in the MinariDataset class which allows for iterating and sampling through episodes which are defined as EpisodeData data class. Take the following example where we load the D4RL/door/human-v2 dataset and randomly sample 10 episodes:
import minari
dataset = minari.load_dataset("D4RL/door/human-v2", download=True)
sampled_episodes = dataset.sample_episodes(10)
The sampled_episodes variable will be a list of 10 EpisodeData elements, each containing episode data. An EpisodeData element is a data class consisting of the following fields:
Field
Type
Description
id
int
ID of the episode.
observations
np.ndarray, list, tuple, dict
Stacked observations for each step including initial observation.
actions
np.ndarray, list, tuple, dict
Stacked actions for each step.
rewards
np.ndarray
Rewards for each step.
terminations
np.ndarray
Terminations for each step.
truncations
np.ndarray
Truncations for each step.
infos
dict
A dictionary containing additional information returned by the environment
As mentioned in the Supported Spaces section, many different observation and action spaces are supported so the data type for these fields are dependent on the environment being used.
Moreover, when creating a dataset with DataCollector, if the DataCollector is initialized with record_infos=True, an info dict must be provided from every call to the environment's step and reset function. The structure of the info dictionary must be the same across steps. Given that it is not guaranteed that all Gymnasium environments provide infos at every step, we provide the StepDataCallback which can modify the infos from a non-compliant environment so they have the same structure at every step.
Other optional attributes of the episode, such as reset seed and options, can be found in the episode metadata using MinariStorage.get_episode_metadata.

The federal Institutional Development Award program renewed grants for three research centers at the Medical University of South Carolina. The research centers focus on cardiovascular health, oral health and lipidomics research.
Published Sept. 13, 2012
A federal program renewed grants for three research centers at the Medical University of South Carolina, the teaching hospital announced Wednesday.
MUSC was awarded $27 million from the Institutional Development Award program, which broadens the geographic distribution of National Institutes of Health funding for biomedical and behavioral research.
The teaching hospital now houses four NIH Centers for Biomedical Research Excellence. The centers perform health-related research and support faculty development and research.
In 2011, MUSC received a fourth grant to establish the Center in Oxidants, Redox Balance and Stress Signaling. Redox balance and stress signaling play a role in a number of diseases, including organ damage and cancer, according to a news release.
"The programmatic initiatives involving the Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence and related infrastructure development grants from the National Institutes of Health have simply been transformative for MUSC and have played important roles in the dramatic growth of research programs at the university over the last 10 years," said Stephen Lanier, an MUSC associate provost for research.


Netflix Sencha Touch 2 app with JayData
Author: Viktor Lazar June 7th, 2012
,,,,
JayData seamlessly integrates into Sencha Touch 2 through the JayData Sencha module. You only have to modify the proxy on your Sencha data store to use the JayData proxy and define a queryable as the data source. Using remoteFilter, remoteSort and pageSize your query will be processed by JayData. Currently the module only supports read-only functions. To add, update or delete entities you can still use JayData directly in your code.
To follow this tutorial it's required to have basic knowledge of Sencha Touch 2 to understand the Sencha Touch 2 parts of the tutorial.
You can see the final app here.
Initializing the JayData context
Initializing the JayData context is easy as always. This Netflix app uses the public OData service of Netflix. After running the JaySvcUtil tool to get the context definition of the Netflix service you only have to reference the context script. JaySvcUtil already includes an instance of the context in the generated script so you don't have to do it manually. Here you can find a tutorial about using the JaySvcUtil tool.
Store definition using JayData proxy
JayData integrates itself into Sencha Touch 2 through a data proxy. You only have to define the JayData proxy on your store. Here is the store definition part of our example:
As you can see the proxy uses a queryable as the data source instead of an URL like other Sencha server stores. This way you can use any queryable of any context you defined and instantiated in your application. You are not restricted to the OData provider. You can use the Facebook, YQL or any other providers of JayData too.
Predefined query filtering and sorting is supported like in the example. By default we sort the data as defined in the store and you can have as many query operators in the store definition as you want.
From now on you can use the filtering, sorting and paging functions of the store as is.
The function parameter of the filterBy function of the Sencha store or any other filter or sort method of the store where you can pass a function as a parameter you literally pass the function to the equivalent JayData method (like.filter(),.orderBy(), etc.).
If a use case is not supported by Sencha or the JayData module you can still use JayData directly. Like in the details view of a movie. When a movie item is tapped we load the details in the event listener function.
In the above source code part we directly query the database using JayData. For the data query we don't use anything from the Sencha library. But in the callback function of the toArray method we build the content using the templating engine of Sencha.
Native mobile app
The Netflix example app is a hybrid application. You can launch it in the browser or you can use PhoneGap and convert it to a native mobile app. Because of the browser limitation of cross-domain AJAX calls you have to include a few additional lines if you want to deploy the app on the web.
With this function we hijack the AJAX request to transform it to a JSONP request. This way the cross-domain issue no longer bothers you. But be careful because JSONP is only valid in a read-only scenario.

Unsafe Application State Restoration (iOS)
Unsafe Application State Restoration (iOS)
What Does Unsafe Application State Restoration Actually Mean?
Despite the fancy title, it essentially means that a mobile application saves the state of a view location that is only presented to an authenticated user, or that contains sensitive data. Within the event of the application being unexpectedly terminated, the state is restored and loaded back into the UI without first validating or re-authenticating the current user.
Conceptually this happens all the time within mobile applications. A developer focused on making things easy and enjoyable for the user, will implement this type of functionality, so if by chance the application closes, the user will be brought back into the same state they left off at.
This functionality makes sense, and is a nice addition to many of the applications we use day in and day out, but what if this existed in your mobile banking application, or on a shared device in a hospital for an application that stored and operated on PHI? If an attacker has direct access to an unlocked device with these applications, he can potentially re-open them after they have been closed, and be presented with very critical data.
So hopefully we can start understanding what this vulnerability actually means and its potential impact.
Preservation and Restoration
For this specific scenario we will explore the technical details surrounding the vulnerability paired with Apple's UIKit Framework. The UIKit Framework has a state restoration system that allows for the preservation and restoration for the application's view controller objects. UIKit allows the developer to choose which view controllers and views he wants to ultimately preserve and restore. To do this, a restoration identifier marks a restorable object, which is a string that identifies the view or the view controller to UIKit and the application.
During preservation the application will:
 - Tell UIKit it supports state preservation
 - Tell UIKit which view controllers to preserve
 - Encode all data for the targeted objects
Preservation
During restoration the application will:
 - Tell UIKit it supports state restoration
 - Provide the restorable objects
 - Decode the state for all relevant objects and return
Restoration
Class Dump Inspection
Methods
To figure out whether or not the application supports preservation and restoration, we can take a look at the output from class-dump-z.
We can see within the Application's Delegate the method 'application:willEncodeRestorableStateWithCoder:' – this is used to encode the state information for the targeted object. You can also see the corresponding method for decoding – 'application didDecodeRestorableStateWithCoder:' – which is called when the application finishes its restoration of the decoded objects.
Unsafe Application State Restoration, So What Is The Risk?
The problem is rooted purely in context, meaning it is all based off what the application's overall business impact will be (i.e. Healthcare). The biggest recommendation I have so far is there really isn't a good reason to mark view objects for preservation that exist in a post-authenticated world. Even if it is solely meant to provide a better user experience, it still is inherently dangerous.
If by chance a developer still chooses to implement this risky functionality, the user still needs to be forced to identify themselves and authenticate back into the application. It would make the most sense that this process begins before initializing and decoding object state.

The bottlebrush buckeye plant, or Aesculus parviflora, is a shrub with lots of straight stems. Small white flowers cluster together at the tops of the stems. The bottlebrush buckeye plant can grow to become 12 feet high and 20 feet wide. Bottlebrush buckeye plants need proper care to thrive.
Locate a space on your property where your bottlebrush buckeye will have some shade and well-draining soil. If necessary, add peat moss or perlite to the soil to help the soil drain.
Water your bottlebrush buckeye once per week, allowing the soil to dry out in between waterings.
Feed your bottlebrush buckeye plant with 8-8-8 slow-release fertilizer. Apply 1 lb. of this fertilizer to every 100 square feet of space.
Spread a layer of mulch around the base of your bottlebrush buckeye plant that is at least 2 inches thick. This will keep the moisture in as well as protect the roots during the winter months.

Diversified miner Anglo American has announced its plans to divest its thermal coal operations in South Africa (SA) and Colombia.
According to a Reuters report, the company plans to exit Colombia's Cerrejon thermal coal mine within one and half to two years. The plan also includes divesting SA thermal coal assets within two and half years.
The step comes as the British multinational miner aims to achieve carbon neutrality across its operations by the year 2040.
In a meeting with investors, Anglo American highlighted its sustainability efforts amid increasing pressure on the mining industry to reduce carbon footprint.
CEO Mark Cutifani was quoted by the news agency as saying: "With the bulk of (growth) options in copper, PGMs, and now also crop nutrients, we are increasingly positioned to supply those metals and minerals that enable a cleaner, greener, more sustainable world."
In 2021, Anglo American expects that the production for all minerals will increase by 14%, while unit costs will drop by 3%.
The company is expected to spend between $5.7bn and $6.2bn next year.
Additionally, the miner expects to produce around 890,000 to one million tonnes of copper in 2023, with the Quellaveco project in Peru expected to commence production in 2022.
Through its carbon neutrality strategy, Anglo American seeks to Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, specifically. The company also expects that eight of its assets will reach the carbon neutrality goal by 2030.


Mason's Line - A Detailed Guide
Mason's line is a product used by professional mason's every day. Also known as the mason's twine, it is one of the most important tools that never get enough credit. When using a mason's line, you do not need to use other leveling tools, which speeds up the process. Plus, when used correctly, it gives a straight line for accuracy while laying blocks or bricks.
In this article, we'll talk about what is a mason's line, how to use it, and everything in between. So, please keep reading to know more about it!
What is Mason's Line?
Mason line is a product used to make straight lines and a leveled surface. It is useful when laying patios, posts, footings, and more. The product is necessary during such jobs as you will no longer need to pick up the level numerous times. Another excellent part about this twine is that it won't sag like other twines.
What are the Characteristics of a Good Good Mason Line?
The mason line is a crucial tool to get straight lines. So there are obviously some important things to keep in mind.
Firstly, the line that you'll be using in laying bricks should be 100% nylon. It won't mildew and will also be less affected by humidity and moisture. The line should also be alkali and abrasion resistant so that it doesn't get damaged by other tools.
In addition, tight and consistent braiding will make it easy to use the line. Precisely, the tighter the braid, the stronger the mason line
Along with this, the mason line should be consistent in color. It should be clearly visible in all types of work conditions. Remember, nylon lines without a consistent color throughout the roll becomes difficult to use and hard to see.
When buying a mason line, don't look at it just like any piece of string but as an important tool. So, focusing on the quality and color of the line is crucial.
How to Use a Mason Line Correctly?
It's essential to use the mason line correctly to get a straight wall. Here are a few easy steps you can follow that will help you in doing the same.
Step 1
First of all, you need to brace and level a 2-4 inch corner pole.
Step 2
The next thing to do is slip your braided mason's line into the line block's groove.
Step 3
Wrap the mason line around the line's notch twice and then slide it into the groove again.
Step 4
Now, face the hook of the mason line towards the rear corner of the cement block and hook the line block over the outside of the block.
Step 5
Run the line to the next corner. Make sure that your line is taut and close to the block you're laying. At the same time, you should have enough space to wipe off extra mortar without bumping the line.
Step 6
Now lay your line in a way that the top of the block matches the established line. Follow this line as you lay and slide the line blocks as you build the wall.
Step 7
Check the wall periodically with a level to ensure that the work is plumb.
Final Thoughts
The mason line is indeed an important tool. It saves valuable time as you don't have to use leveling tools often.
The majority of the bricklayers have experienced unraveling and sagging mason's line while laying bricks. Unfortunately, you could waste valuable time correcting the problems caused by a poor quality mason line. You can prevent this by using a premium quality line.
Make sure to buy the mason line from a reputed vendor and look for the material and consistency of color to prevent costly mistakes.

Ottawa, ON, Feb 15, 2012 — One city's relationship with trees is explored in a new museum exhibit in Ottawa.
Six moments in the history of an urban forest is the brainchild of Carleton University history professor Joanna Dean and graduate student Will Knight.
Present-day Ottawa began as rough riverside lumber shanties in the early 1800s. It grew to become the nation's capital, with various trends in tree clearing and tree planting along the way. More recently, the area has faced damage from natural disaster and invasive pests, like the emerald ash borer, which threatens perhaps 30% of Ottawa's existing tree population.
Although the display considers urban forestry from an Ottawa perspective, the challenge of combining trees with cities is universal. Lucy Martin spoke with co-curators, Joanna Dean and Will Knight on opening day at the Bytown Museum, beside the treed slopes of Parliament Hill. Go to full article

The objective of this research was to estimate the effect of beef grinding on the accuracy of estimating fat content using a computer-aided video image analysis. Photographs of the analyzed beef trimmings from the fabrication line were taken. Next, each meat sample was ground in a grinder with a plate having 10 mm openings and, again, photographs of the meat ground were taken. Based on the photographs taken, a computer-aided video image analysis was performed. Furthermore, in the meat analyzed, a reference fat content was determined using a standard Soxhlet method. The parameters as determined by the VIA method (i.e. the RGB colour values and the content of white fields – corresponding with the fat and connective tissue) were correlated with fat content determined by a reference method. The results obtained were statistically analyzed and this analysis disclosed significant dependencies between the content of white fields determined by the VIA method and the fat content determined by the Soxhlet method in the case of both the non-ground and the ground meat. The similar values of correlation coefficients referring to the non ground and ground meat allow for the statement that the grinding degree has not a big effect on the accuracy of estimating the fat content therein using the computer-aided video analysis method.

Power showers combine the water from hot and cold supplies to reach the perfect temperature, while using a pump to offer incredible water pressure.
Here, we run through how to install a Mira Event XS thermostatic power shower. Remember that only a qualified professional should attempt power shower installation and you should always ensure that both the plumbing and electricity supplies are shut off before installing a power shower.
The following installation procedure is based on a bottom-entry pipework configuration (rising hot and cold water supplies) and a top-entry electrical supply configuration (via miniature trunking from above). Using this procedure as a guide, adjust the steps for alternative water supply or electrical supply configurations as appropriate.
- Decide on a suitable location for the Mira Event XS, avoiding buried cables and pipes. Leave a minimum distance of 200mm from the ceiling to allow for the fitting and removal of the cover. Ensure that when the hose retaining ring is placed on the lowest position on the slide bar, there is a minimum distance of 25mm between the handset and the bath or shower tray spillover when the handset is hanging down.
- Fit the three rubber feet into the recesses in the case. The feet will reduce the noise transmitted by the power shower through the wall.
- Remove the temperature knob concealing cap.
- Insert the end of the push-fit tool under the temperature control knob, in line with the temperature override button, and lever off the temperature knob.
- Unscrew the three retaining screws sufficiently to remove the shower cover. The cover retaining screws are captive and need not be removed.
- Using a spirit level, position the Mira Event XS on the wall and mark the three fixing points. Ensure the marked fixing points are not in line with buried cables and pipes before drilling.
- Drill 9.5mm holes and fit the rubber wall plugs supplied.
- Cut away and trim the thinned section in the top of the case to allow the electrical supply cable to run down the cable channel in the back of the case.
- Run the electrical supply cable into the surface-mounted miniature trunking (not supplied). Allow sufficient cable to connect to the Mira Event XS terminal block (approximately 275mm). Strip back approximately 30mm of outer cable insulation.
- Run the hot and cold water supply pipes at 28mm centres, ensuring that the pipe ends project into the Mira Event XS by 30mm to allow connection into the inlet manifold.
- Ensure that the end of the supply pipework is cut squarely and that it is free from burrs, which can damage the inlet manifold seals. Chamfer the end of the pipe to assist insertion into the fitting and to prevent the 'O' seal from tearing. Do not insert fingers into the push-fit connectors, as this can result in injury. Thoroughly flush the incoming hot and cold water supply pipes to remove debris before connecting the Mira Extreme shower.
- Push the supply pipework inside the inlet manifold until resistance is felt. Do not force it.
- The collet and 'O' seal will automatically make a hydraulic seal.
- This Mira Event XS must be fixed to the wall at all three fixing positions. The fixing holes are elongated to assist in vertical and horizontal alignment.
- Screw the Mira Event XS T to the wall using either the supplied wall screws or alternative fixings, depending on the wall structure. Do not over-tighten. Ensure that the electrical supply cable is correctly seated in the channel in the back of the case.
- Connect the conductors of the electrical supply cable to the terminal block. The supply cable earth connector should be sleeved.
- Turn the flow spindle fully clockwise so that the flat is facing towards 11 o'clock.
- Turn the flow knob fully clockwise on the cover so that the indicator is pointing to the off position.
- Refit the cover and secure with the three cover retaining screws.
- Refit the temperature control knob and the concealing cap.
Read our full manual for diagrams and instructions on commissioning and operating the shower.

File cache
This section provides information on the file cache.
General information
The file cache enables you to upload a file to Cypress once and then obtain a path to the file multiple times via a specified MD5 hash.
The file cache is required to run operations. When users run tasks, this uploads an executable and all its dependencies.
Using Python, for instance, requires loading a large number of modules and dynamic link libraries. To avoid loading identical files multiple times, you only need to read them into the cache and request the path to these files in Cypress using an MD5 hash for any subsequent runs.
Computing an MD5 hash for uploaded files
To request an MD5 hash computation for an uploaded file, send compute_md5=True to the write_file command.
There are some constraints:
 1. When using append, you cannot request an MD5 computation unless there was a previous write to the file with an MD5 computation.
 2. A computed MD5 hash is reset if there is a call to the concatenate command and its output is written to the relevant file.
API commands
For working with the file cache, there are the put_file_to_cache and the get_file_from_cache commands.

This is a typical use case:
 1. User is browsing a SharePoint Form Library and wants to edit a form
 2. User forgets to checkout form before opening the form in the browser
 3. User wants to edit form immediate without going back to SP UI to check-out document manually.
 4. User clicks on an 'edit' button we've added to the form which sets all fields to editable. This should also check-out the form from SharePoint.
 5. User goes about editing the document, and clicks submit (another custom button, from what I understand). At this point the form is submitted and should be checked-in to Sharepoint.
Is any of this possible?

Hawaiian language online
About Hawaiian diacritical marks
The Hawaiian language uses two diacritical markings. The okina is a glottal stop, similar to the sound between the syllables of "oh-oh." In print, the correct mark for designating an okina is the single open quote mark. The kahako is a macron, which lengthens and adds stress to the marked vowel. For example 'pau,' depending on placement of okina and kahako, can mean completed, smudge, moist or skirt.
The State of Hawaii and University of Hawaii strongly encourage use of Hawaiian diacritical markings. (See UH Style Guide.) Technology, however, is still catching up.
Choose the level of Hawaiian font display
Depending on your browser, operating system and installed fonts, you may be able to display Hawaiian diacritical marks. If not, they will generally appear as boxes or question marks. In that case, you can choose either to use a foot mark (') as an approximation of the okina or display text without diacritical marks.
Your setting selection will be maintained for this browser and this session only.
- Display no diacritical markings
- Use the footmark () for the okina, but do not display macrons
- Show all diacritical markings
Click on the links above and watch the demo text below change. If you see boxes instead of diacritical marks, you do not have the fonts installed and should turn off the diacritical option for your session.

The University of Hawaii System consists of 10 campuses, 7 community colleges and 3 university level campuses. The Manoa campus, on the island of Oahu, is the flagship campus with more than 18,000 students enrolled.

Javascript Question
Is there a difference between \d and \d+?
_URL_
I was doing a lesson in FCC, and they mentioned that the digit selector \d finds one digit and adding a + (\d+) in front of the selector allows it to search for more than one digit.
I experimented with it a bit, and noticed that its the g right after the expression that searches for every number, not the +. I tried using \d+ without the g after the expression, and it only matched the first number in the string.
Basically, whether I use \d or \d+, as long as I have the g after the expression, It will find all of the numbers. So my question is, what is the difference between the two?
// Setup
var testString = "There are 3 cats but 4 dogs.";
var expression = /\d+/g;
var digitCount = testString.match(expression).length;
Answer
The g at the end means global, ie. that you want to search for all occurrences. Without it, you'll just get the first match.
\d, as you know, means a single digit. You can add quantifiers to specify whether you want to match all the following, or a certain amount of digits afterwards.
\d means a single digit
\d+ means all sequential digits
So let's say we have a string like this:
123 456
_PHONE_
/\d/g will match [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3]
/\d/ will match 1
/\d+/ will match 123
/\d+/g will match [123,456,_PHONE_]
You could also use /\d{1,3}/g to say you want to match all occurrences where there are from 1 to 3 digits in a sequence.
Another common quantifier is the star symbol, which means 0 or more. For example /1\d*/g would match all sequences of digits that start with 1, and have 0 or more digits after it.


text: Abstract Reactions at the interface between Ta and GaAs have been studied at 850–950 °C with thick film Ta/GaAs diffusion couples in the region of unlimited material supply. The development of a reaction layer is observed, the layer being composed of phases that can be identified in the ternary TaGa-As phase diagram. The growth kinetics of this layer are parabolic with different reaction mechanisms at 850 and 900 °C. The different reactions can be understood from the experimentally determined ternary phase diagram and from the thermodynamic driving forces for the various competing phases in the reaction layer. Data on reactions in thin film Ta/GaAs contacts can be interpreted on the same basis. The thermodynamic stability of intermetallic phases in this system for use as contact materials on GaAs is also discussed, and TaAs is identified as the most appropriate phase.

parakeet in a nest box
Do Parakeets need a nest box? ( Rest, Sleep, Breeding )
If you're preparing to get a pet parakeet, you may be pondering over whether or not your parakeet needs a nest or nest box. Knowing what to buy and what not to buy for a new pet, especially a pet that is not as common as a cat or a dog, can be perplexing.
The question is, does a domestic parakeet that has all the comforts of life provided by a human caretaker really need a nest? Do they sleep in one, breed in one?
Parakeets need a nest for breeding, resting, and privacy. Domestic parakeets do not build nests, so one will need to be provided for them in captivity. In the wild parakeets will use hollow trees and other places to rest. Breeding parakeets need a special nesting box, a place where they can lay eggs and protect them.
What kind of nest does a parakeet need?
In the wild, the majority of parakeets build their nests in holes in trees. However, the Monk Parakeet builds a bulky stick nest in the branches of a tree, for sleeping in and for raising its young.
In captivity, nothing this elaborate—or traditionally nest-y—is necessary. Parakeets are low maintenance birds and do not require a conventional nest; they simply need somewhere for privacy and rest.
Your parakeet will be happy with a small enclosure inside its cage that it can go inside, be unseen, and get some sleep. An excellent choice is a small hut with a soft sleeping mat inside.
wild parakeet nesting
What does a pet Parakeet need besides a nest?
First, the bigger the parakeet cage, the better. Opt for the largest enclosure in your budget and that you have space for in your home. The cage should be no smaller than 18" x 18" x 24" and should have several perches for your parakeet to stand on.
We like the Prevue Hendryx Cage from Amazon ( Link )
Line the aviary with bedding made of recycled paper, or you can use a specific cage liner. Replace the lining no less than every other day; parakeets despise an untidy living environment.
Place your parakeet's cage below eye level and away from the kitchen and any windows. Parakeets have a sensitivity to smoke and strong odors, so they should be kept safely away from anywhere they could be exposed to such irritants. A nest box is another way to escape the bright light or sunshine.
Your parakeet also needs food, water, and toys in their cage.
A parakeet should eat a balanced diet of pellets, bird seed blend, fresh fruits and vegetables, treats, and plenty of water, which should be changed every day.
The types of toys parakeets enjoy playing with are bells, chew toys, puzzles, creative/fun perches, ladders, and swings.
A cuttlebone is also something important for a parakeet to have in their cage. Parakeets use cuttlebones to smooth their growing beak, almost like a nail file for humans. It also provides nutrients that are otherwise difficult for your parakeet to get in their diet.
Some people have concerns about letting their parakeets have cuttlebones, but it's a 100% natural product; it's the endoskeleton, or inner bone, of a cuttlefish. The Humane Society has ruled that it is entirely safe for parakeets to have cuttlebones.
Parakeets Sleeping Habits
In captivity, parakeets typically sleep on the same schedule as their caretakers and nap during the day, much like cats or dogs. However, parakeets are a bit finicky over sleeping conditions, and there are a few things that will affect the quality of a parakeet's sleep:
 - Parakeets don't like total darkness—Either get them a night light or don't cover their cage completely at night.
 - Parakeets scare easily by loud noises—Make sure they have somewhere quiet to rest and try not to make loud, abrupt sounds while they're sleeping.
 - Parakeets do not like messy cages—Clean their cage regularly, or you will get some sass from your parakeet.
 - Parakeets do not like it too cold or too hot—Keep the temperature in their cage environment from 70°-80°F.
Other than that, it's quite simple, parakeets like a quiet, private, warm place to cuddle up and sleep. As long as you've provided a comfortable nest for your parakeet and you make sure that it has prime sleeping conditions, your parakeet should rest easily.
You should make sure that your parakeet gets enough rest (9-12 hours per day) because it will get cranky if it doesn't. A soft sleeping nest like the Keeris Soft nest box on Amazon will provide a safe, warm, and dark place to rest or sleep.
parakeet in a nest
Do you need a nest or nest box to breed Parakeets?
Yes, parakeets can breed in captivity. It's not very difficult. Under the optimal conditions, parakeets will breed with little encouragement from their caretakers.
Two parakeets of the opposite sex in a cage together will typically pair up, but if it does not happen right away, give it a few days before intervening.
Some pairs of parakeets chosen to mate will fail to bond after having been stuck in a cage together. It's common for a fail-bond pair to be defensive and hostile towards one another. In this case, take a step back and reconsider your matchmaking. Re-pair your parakeets and try again.
Breeding Season
The parakeet mating season is during the wet spring season and the summer. Still, parakeets in the northern United States breed during the entire year. However, they do need daylight hours to trigger the mating instinct.
Breeding Age
Parakeets mature to breeding age at around six months, but you shouldn't breed them until at least ten months. You should not breed a parakeet at six months because they aren't ready to be good parents just because they have reached physical maturity; they still have brain development to finish, and they need to reach mental maturity, which doesn't happen until at least ten months.
Nesting Requirements
A parakeet breeding cage's dimensions should be no less than 25" x 15" x 15". The breeding pair should be in this cage alone, away from all the other parakeets. The breeding cage should have all of the cage amenities detailed in the sections above, plus a nesting box, which you should affix to the side of the cage.
Just as with nests, in the wild, parakeets breed in holes in trees. For successful breeding in captivity, you need to simulate a hole in a tree—nesting boxes made of wood with holes for the parakeets to enter and exit work perfectly for this.

as of August 5, 2021 08:18
You should line the inside of the nesting box with something for the female to lay her eggs on, such as soft nesting material.
Some parakeets won't use the nesting box and will lay eggs on the floor of their cage. You can teach your parakeet to use the nesting box by placing her eggs inside the nesting box to show her that's where she should lay her eggs in the future.
Parakeet Nesting Behaviors
When your parakeet becomes a parent, its behavior will likely change. Like any parent in the animal kingdom, parakeets experience the natural instinct to protect their young. Hormones that parakeets begin to release when protecting their eggs cause them to display increased aggression rather commonly.
You should avoid handling your parakeet during this stage of early parenthood. Over time, the hormones will subside. Your parakeet will return to the personality it had before becoming a parent; it may even allow you to play with its babies.
Final Thoughts
A nest is a place where your parakeet can feel safe and secure. They will not build one so remember to buy a suitable nest box or build one yourself if you want you parakeet to relax and enjoy their home.

MyReporter finds out when there was Christmas snow in Wilmington
Q: When was the last time Wilmington had a white Christmas?
A: Believe it or not, the National Weather Service website has a page dedicated to Christmas climatology.
According to that page, a trace of snow fell on Christmas Day in only two years — 1948 and 1999 — in Wilmington. Unfortunately, an inch of snow on the ground is required to declare a white Christmas, the weather service page says.
That doesn't mean there wasn't snow on the ground on Christmas Day from a previous snowfall. For example, the highest snow depth on Christmas Day in Wilmington was 13 inches in 1989. That also was the Christmas Day when the mercury dipped to zero, making it the coldest temperature ever recorded in Wilmington since records began in 1874.
Other fun weather facts about Christmas Days in Wilmington:
The warmest — 77 degrees in 1955.
The coldest high temperature — 26 in 1983.
The warmest high temperature — 77 in 1955.
The coldest average temperature — 17.5 in 1983.
The warmest average temperature — 69.5 in 1964.
The most precipitation — 2.26 inches in 2006.

Dating and courtship in the philippines sex dating in rock island washington
Courtship always has marriage as its direct goal...Dating, a more modern approach, begins when either the man or the woman initiates a more-than-friends relationship with the other, and then they conduct that relationship outside of any oversight or authority. Christian minister Patricia Bootsma delineates this distinction, writing that in contrast to the modern conception of dating, in "courtship, time together in groups with family or friends is encouraged, and there is oversight by and accountability to parents or mentors".Courtship is used by a number of theorists to explain gendering processes and sexual identity.Scientific research into courtship began in the 1980s after which time academic researchers started to generate theories about modern dating practices and norms.Unlike what is regularly seen in other societies, it takes a far more subdued and indirect approach.It is complex in that it involves stages, and it is considered normal for courtship to last a year or longer.

100% of Normal • Normal
Water gage height, ft levels at Lucky Peak Lake Nr Boise Id are currently 3,052 ft, about 100% of normal. The average for this time of year is approximately 3,050.53ft.
Maximum recorded Gage height, ft since record keeping began in 2014 was 2016-08-02 when levels reached 3,055.63 ft. Lowest recorded Gage height, ft was 2021-01-05 when levels receded to 2,916.71 ft.
Lucky Peak Lake is a reservoir located in the Boise River Basin in Idaho. The dam that created the lake was built in 1955 to provide flood control and hydroelectric power. The lake is fed by the Boise River and snowpack from surrounding mountains. Agricultural uses of the water include irrigation of crops along the Boise River and hydroelectric power generation. Recreational uses of the lake include boating, fishing, and swimming. The lake is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. The snowpack in the mountains provides a critical source of water for the reservoir, which in turn provides water for downstream users. The lake is an important part of the hydrology of the Boise River Basin and plays a critical role in managing water resources in the area.

Fuzzy sets on 2D spaces for fineness representation
MetadatosAfficher la notice complète
Fuzzy setsFeature extractionImage analysisTexture modeling Human perception
The analysis of the perceptual properties of texture plays a fundamental role in tasks like semantic description of images, content-based image retrieval using linguistic queries, or expert systems design based on low level visual features. In this paper, we propose a methodology to model texture properties by means of fuzzy sets defined on bidimensional spaces. In particular, we have focused our study on the fineness property that is considered as the most important feature for human visual interpretation. In our approach, pairwise combinations of fineness measures are used as a reference set, which allows to improve the ability to capture the presence of this property. To obtain the membership functions, we propose to learn the relationship between the computational values given by the measures and the human perception of fineness. The performance of each fuzzy set is analyzed and tested with the human assessments, allowing us to evaluate the goodness of each model and to identify the most suitable combination of measures for representing the fineness presence.

This paper describes a simple and highly sensitive auto bias control (ABC) technique based on asymmetric bias dithering for optical quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation and QPSK variants. Using our asymmetric bias dithering proposal, the required bandwidth of the ABC circuit is only ~2fd, where fd is the frequency of dithering, fd < 1 kHz. Thus, the circuit can be constructed without using high-speed components, and bias control performance is not limited by the signal bit rate. In this paper, we detail the concept of asymmetric bias dithering. We describe experiments that confirm bias monitoring and ABC operation, using a 20–64 Gbit/s optical QPSK signal. Its typical penalty is 0.1 dB, and Q factor fluctuation is negligible over 6 h of operation.

text: The design of automated negotiators has been the focus of abundant research in recent years. However, due to difficulties involved in creating generalized agents that can negotiate in several domains and against human counterparts, many automated negotiators are domain specific and their behavior cannot be generalized for other domains. Some of these difficulties arise from the differences inherent within the domains, the need to understand and learn negotiators' diverse preferences concerning issues of the domain and the different strategies negotiators can undertake. In this paper we present a system that enables alleviation of the difficulties in the design process of general automated negotiators termed Genius, a General Environment for Negotiation with Intelligent multi-purpose Usage Simulation. With the constant introduction of new domains, e-commerce and other applications, which require automated negotiations, generic automated negotiators encompass many benefits and advantages over agents that are designed for a specific domain. Based on experiments conducted with automated agents designed by human subjects using Genius we provide both quantitative and qualitative results to illustrate its efficacy. Our results show the advantages and underlying benefits of using Genius for designing general automated negotiators.

 2. Repeat the same procedure for other arrays (Items) if more than two elements exist in it?
Hi,
As we are using UNWIND, we can join different items and create relationships accordingly. So with the following updated Cypher query, we can traverse through the items we previously UNWIND:
CALL apoc.load.json("file:///json_example.json")
YIELD value
UNWIND value.my_links as l
UNWIND l.Items as item1
UNWIND l.Items as item2
MATCH (e1:Entity), (e2:Entity)
WHERE item1.my_code > item2.my_code AND e1.my_code = item1.my_code AND e2.my_code = item2.my_code
CREATE (e1)<-[r:OR]-(e2)
RETURN e1, e2, r
On the other side, annswering to your latest questions, you can also use FOREACH if you need to iterate per some elements.
Hope it helps.

This paper studies the characteristics of Mai Jia's spy fiction. Placing it under the global map of spy fiction as a genre, this paper evaluates the uniqueness and contribution of Mai Jia to this genre. It identifies two themes of Mai Jia's works: The truth of history does not necessarily have the only answer, and individual's growth may not develop through a rational way. The main characteristics of Mai Jia include that he provides different perspective of certain event through various methods such as letters and interview; The unexpected ending of the story creates a dramatic effect of the uncertainty of life; The texts deconstruct the holy revolutionary discourse with the vernacular emotion and everyday practices. Through these methods, Mai Jia succeeds in overthrowing the tradition of Chinese spy fiction in the 1950s.

Piotroski Score
DEFINITION of 'Piotroski Score'
A discrete score between 0-9 which reflects nine criteria used to determine the strength of a firm's financial position. The Piotroski score is used to determine the best value stocks, nine being the best. The score was named after Chicago Accounting Professor, Joseph Piotroski who devised the scale according to specific criteria found in the financial statements. For every criteria (below) that is met the company is given one point, if it is not met, then no points are awarded. The points are then added up to determine the best value stocks.
 - Positive return on assets in the current year (1 point).
 - Positive operating cash flow in the current year (1 point).
 - Higher return on assets (ROA) in the current period compared to the ROA in the previous year (1 point).
 - Cash flow from operations are greater than ROA (1 point)
Leverage, Liquidity and Source of Funds
 - Lower ratio of long term debt to in the current period compared value in the previous year (1 point).
 - Higher current ratio this year compared to the previous year (1 point).
 - No new shares were issued in the last year (1 point).
Operating Efficiency
 - A higher gross margin compared to the previous year (1 point).
 - A higher asset turnover ratio compared to the previous year (1 point).
BREAKING DOWN 'Piotroski Score'
If a company has a score of 8 or 9 it is considered strong. If the score adds up to between 0-2 points, the stock is considered weak. Piotroski's April 2000 paper Value Investing: The Use of Historical Financial Statement Information to Separate Winners from Losers, demonstrated that the Piotroski score method would have seen a 23% annual return between 1976 and 1996 if the expected winners were bought and expected losers shorted. With any investment system, looking at past results doesn't always means it will work in the future, but having an investment plan and rules is never a bad idea.

Domain Testing is a type of Functional Testing which tests the application by giving inputs and evaluating its appropriate outputs. It is a software testing technique in which the output of a system has to be tested with a minimum number of inputs in such a case to ensure that the system does not accept invalid and out of range input values.
One of the most important White Box Testing methods is domain testing. The main goal of the Domain testing is to check whether the system accepts the input within the acceptable range and delivers the required output. Also, it verifies the system should not accept the inputs, conditions, and indices outside the specified or valid range.
Domain testing is different from domain-specific knowledge you need to test a software system.

text: In order to realize high-precision measurement of spatial dynamic angle, a spatial dynamic angle measurement method based on machine vision is proposed. A high-precision two-axis servo system is installed onto the measured target. When the spatial angle of the measured target is changed, the servo system outputs the pitch angle and the azimuth angle by identifying and tracking the cooperative target。According to the spatial coordinate system transformation，the angle change value of the measured target can be obtained. The measurement accuracy of the spatial angle will be influenced by the accuracy of the tracking cooperative target with the servo system. A cross-patterned target board is designed based on the measured distance and the imaging system. Several major algorithms of detection are summarized. Their merits and demerits are analyzed by identifying and locating the center of captured image. The captured images are compared by the servo system controlled with these algorithms. The measurement results are solved by spatial coordinate transformation. According to the experimental results, a fast detection algorithm of target center in the real-time image processing is selected. High accuracy and good real-time performance of this method in processing the target image is demonstrated by calculating and comparing the results of each image processing algorithm, which satisfies the measured requirement of space dynamic angle.

Can a Way of Astral Self Monk use wisdom related scores for jumping?
I have several questions on the interactions between the Arms of Astral Self and the Jumping mechanics. According to the 3rd level feature, Arms of the Astral Self:
While the spectral arms are present, you gain the following benefits:
 - You can use your Wisdom modifier in place of your Strength modifier when making Strength checks and Strength saving throws.
 - You can use the spectral arms to make unarmed strikes.
 - When you make an unarmed strike with the arms on your turn, your reach for it is 5 feet greater than normal.
 - The unarmed strikes you make with the arms can use your Wisdom modifier in place of your Strength or Dexterity modifier for the attack and damage rolls, and their damage type is force.
The Jumping session of the PHB states:
Long Jump
This rule assumes that the height of your jump doesn't matter, such as a jump across a stream or chasm. At your DM's option, you must succeed on a DC 10 Strength (Athletics) check to clear a low obstacle (no taller than a quarter of the jump's distance), such as a hedge or low wall. Otherwise, you hit it.
High Jump
When you make a high jump, you leap into the air a number of feet equal to 3 + your Strength modifier (minimum of 0 feet) if you move at least 10 feet on foot immediately before the jump. When you make a standing high jump, you can jump only half that distance. Either way, each foot you clear on the jump costs a foot of movement. In some circumstances, your DM might allow you to make a Strength (Athletics) check to jump higher than you normally can.
You can extend your arms half your height above yourself during the jump. Thus, you can reach above you a distance equal to the height of the jump plus 1½ times your height.
My questions would be, assuming that I have Arms of the Astral Self activated:
 1. Can I use my Wisdom Score instead of my strenght score to determine my long jump distance?
 2. Can I make a Wisdom (Athletics) check instead of a Strenght (Athletics) check?
 3. Can I use my Wisdom modifier instead of my Strenght modifier to determine my high jump's height?
 4. Can the extra 5 feet range of the Arms of Astral Self be used when accounting for "extending your arms half your height above yourself" on the high jump, making it 1½ your height + 5 feet instead of only 1½ your height?
I am aware that some of the answers to these questions are up to DM discretion, so I would like to know, if possible, what would be the RAW interpretation and also how would you rule it in your games.
In advance, I'm extremely grateful to whoever takes time to answer these 🙂
Does a PF2e spellcaster who takes multiclass dedications into other spellcasting classes, and related spellcasting feats, gain more spell slots?
Ezren is a level 10 evocation wizard, and hence would have spell slots of the following levels:
+-------------+-----------------+ | Spell level | Number of slots | +-------------+-----------------+ | 1 | 4 | | 2 | 4 | | 3 | 4 | | 4 | 4 | | 5 | 4 | +-------------+-----------------+
However, at level 2 Ezren took the Sorcerer multiclass dedication. At level 4 he took Basic Sorcerer Spellcasting, and Bloodline Breadth at level 8.
How many spell slots does Ezren have in a given day? Is it:
Because at level 8, spellcasting archetype feats grant an additional spell slot of first, second and third level, AND the bloodline breadth feat increases each of these by one?
Or do these sources of spell slots not stack for some reason? Coming from fifth edition, a wizard who multiclasses sorcerer still has the same number of spell slots as a pure wizard, so I'd like to clarify my understanding here.
Is it possible for the runtime and input size in an algorithm to be inversely related?
I'm wondering if it's possible for algorithms that have monotonically decreasing runtime with the input-size – just as a fun mental exercise. If not, is it possible to disprove this claim?

Help understanding a theorem Kleinberg proves related to sequence alignment
This is from Kleinberg's Algorithm Design text (Theorem 6.14)
Let $ M$ be an alignment of $ X$ and $ Y$. If $ (m, n) \notin M$, then either the $ m^{\text{th}}$ position of $ X$ or the $ n^{\text{th}}$ position of $ Y$ is not matched in $ Y$.
The theorem does not state that $ m, n$ must be the last elements of $ X$ and $ Y$ respectively, but earlier, when introducing the topic, he uses $ m, n$ to denote the last entries of the two strings. Which of these is correct?
Unrelated applications like games accessing 'webcache' related files
As title suggests im wondering if a game,for example, has any business accessing 'webcache_counters'.
After attempting to clean my webcachev01 file due to its oddly large filesize given the fact i dont use IE or Microsoft Edge at all, I noticed in processexplorer that alot of my random applications were accessing a file with the suffix 'webcache_counters' followed by a string of numbers I'd imagine to be a registry key.
Strange thing about this handle is that i cant view its properties nor close the handle. With the first saying that it is 'Unable to query' and the latter saying i lack administrative rights. To clarify I am the sole user and administrator on this machine.
All this is having me increasingly worried, ive been having recent fears of malware on my PC and this has appeared in my rigourous inquiry of my files and processes. How can an innocuous sounding file/handle bar me from even closing it in process explorer?
Create dynamic sql query to select all related data in DB based on entry table and ID
Hope all is well. I am hoping you can help me.
Problem Statement – I'm tasked to create a dynamic SQL statement which will select all related data from a given table where the Identifier is passed. For each table where the relevant data is found i would like the data to be exported onto a separate tab of within excel
If i was doing this manually done this i would perform the following queries and export the data onto each tab;
Select * from Mason where id = 12345 Select * from MasonContacts where Companyid= 12345 Select * from MasonOpportunities where Comid = 12345
However given the sheer volume of tables this isn't viable.
Step 1 : Type in my identifier (in this case my identifier is a field called "Id" in the Table "Mason") The query will always start from this table.
Table Name : Mason Field : Id = "12345"
Step 2 : Search against table "MasonContacts", search against the field "Companyid". Return all columns & records where the field "Companyid = 12345"
Table Name : MasonContacts Field : Companyid
Step 3 : Search against table "Mason Opportunities ", search against the field "Comid". Return all columns & records where the field "Company = 12345"
Table Name : MasonOpportunities Field : Comid

Databases and B-Trees: What are Keys and how are they related
I confused about the description & definition of "key" occuring as terminology for databases and b-trees.
In first case dealing with theory of databases a key is defined as a choice for a in certain sense minimal (see below) subset $ K \subset A := \{A_1,A_2,…,A_n\}$ of a fixed set of attributes $ A_i$ parametrizing a data table (consisting of relations; a single relation is abstraction of a row in the table), where each attribute is literally a column specifying a property of objects = relations.
A key is characterized by property that there exist no two different relations (a relation is a row) which have exactly the same values for all attributes which belong to the key. And a key is a minimal subset with this property, ie there not exist a proper smaller subset of attributes contained in the key and having the property described in last sentence. Clearly keys are not unique. So the set of a keys is certain subset of the power set of the set attributes $ A_i$. See also here:
On the other hand the key concept occures as well for b-trees:
Here keys are a priori numbers or integers and different knots of b-tree contain different totally ordered subsets of keys

The Hefei TV tower is taken as an analytical case to examine the control method with a fluid viscous damper under wind load fluctuation. Firstly, according to the random vibration theory, the effect of fluctuating wind on the tower can be modeled as a 19-dimensional correlated random process, and the wind-induced vibration analysis of the tower subjected to dynamic wind load was further obtained. On the basis of the others' works, a bimodel dynamic model is proposed. Finally, a dynamic model is proposed to study the wind-induced vibration control analysis using viscous fluid dampers, and the optimal damping coefficient is obtained regarding the wind-induced response of the upper turret as optimization objectives. Analysis results show that the maximum peak response of the tower under dynamic wind load is far beyond the allowable range of the code. The wind-induced responses and the wind vibration input energy of the tower are decreased greatly by using a fluid viscous damper, and the peak acceleration responses of the upper turret is reduced by 43.4%.
